Forever and a day ago, I remember being on the Entrepreneur subreddit and seeing the start of subscription boxes as a good business opportunity.

Seems like they exploded for a while and now you never really hear about them much.

That got me to wondering if they’re still doing well for some people.

Especially after an ad I saw on Facebook.

This Is Perfect For A Recipes Niche Newsletter

So last night when I was wasting time on Facebook, an ad in my feed caught my eye.

As soon as I saw it, I realized that it would be a great product to sell via a recipes niche newsletter.

You could even tweak what these people are doing and do your own thing.

So, this is a subscription box that sends you spices + a recipe card each month for a cost of what seems to be $15/month.

It’s an interesting idea at a good price point. Postage and that custom packaging are likely the highest overhead costs here.

Not sure if this sort of thing falls under that food handling legal thing that requires you to have a commercial kitchen (unless there’s a cottage law in your location).

But when I saw this I realized you could put your own twist on this to match whatever type of niched-down recipes newsletter you’re doing.

Probably could work with things outside of recipes, too.

Thoughts on this idea?

Coming up…

More on what I’m working on and how it’s going.

Stay awesome,
